Window Stickers from Signazon.com Bring New Interest to a Vintage Record Store

Tags: , , , , , , , ,
Posted in postcard template | No Comments »

(PRWEB) June 01, 2011

Window stickers from Signazon.com and some modern creativity have brought new interest to a vintage hot-spot. A record store in Seattle, Washington, Smash Hits is a place loved by locals deep in the music scene. Surrounded by rock memorabilia, the smell of vinyl and an owner with the love and knowledge of a true collector, Smash Hits is a landmark in the local Seattle music scene. Ron Teller, the owner of Smash Hits, specializes in unique and rare releases that certainly can?t be found in any local Best Buy or Walmart as well as a huge variety of new and old releases in every genre. Ron strives to give a personal touch to the shopping experience by knowing and remembering each of his customers by name, and his infatuation with music makes him the best resource for anything music.

Ron?s recent dilemma, however, is his competition with larger chain retailers and the ease of downloading music online. Ron contacted Signazon.com for some ideas on how to help his local store stand out a little more. ?We had Ron send us photos of his storefront and the inside of the store so we could get an idea of what could help,? says Kelly Cooper, Head of Internet Sales at Signazon.com. ?Once we received his photos, we saw how much potential the store had, ideas just started flowing. Ron was so open to suggestions that we were really able to have fun with his designs.? Signazon.com?s designers found great inspiration in the retro memorabilia that lined the walls and thought to bring the bright fun feel of the inside, out to the streets with window stickers. Smash Hits is well known to the music scene but never really tried to reach out to its neighbors with any kind of advertising. The fun interior was unmatched to the dreary and plain exterior of the store. Signazon.com worked with Ron to create window advertising that would draw in a new slew of customers and help keep the record shop viable.

Signazon worked with Ron to create a mural-like window display that would cover most of the windows with famous faces from each genre. The material of choice, Store One-Way Vision, is designed to keep the visibility from inside the store but really impact those on the street with these full-color, bold images. The windows that don?t feature the mural will be used for advertising, using reusable window clings that can be placed in the windows for some of the store?s reoccurring promotions. Ron will be able to update his window signs monthly with inexpensive window clings that feature new artists, new CD releases and store promotions. The final step in his store re-design is to get awareness out the masses. Ron?s customer base is a dedicated group of individuals who were eager to help the store compete against big brother businesses. Ron started selling vinyl stickers that his customers can place on their vehicle (or anywhere else) and help spread the word about this amazing niche store.

?Working with Signazon.com has been amazing,? says owner Ron Teller. ?Their creativity has brought my store to life, and I have seen a huge increase in walk-in customers. I drive through the neighborhoods and see my window stickers on people?s cars. I can really see the worth in what I offer.? Ron?s store has more than doubled in sales for this month and continues to see an increase in business. He has even been able to hire some additional help for the store?s busier hours. ?We strive on showing businesses new ways to market and love to hear success stories like Ron?s,? says Cooper. ?The products we offer have continuously proven to be great resources to the small business owner.? Signazon.com offer products for any size marketing campaign and can easily design and order online within minutes. Signazon?s swift approach to Smash Hits, and all Signazon?s customers, shows successful results without breaking the bank.

Penn added, continuing, ?we listened to our customers and decided to offer a door hanger with a built-in perforation to make adding a business card or coupon to the bottom simple and neat.?

Posted in postcard template | No Comments »

 

Making your own postcard can be very easy, if you get right template for your postcard. Getting free postcard template can be very wonderful thing because they are free and attractive. After spending lot money on postage, paper and printing service, free postcard template can help you to save a little bit amount money.

You can generate impressive results from postcard marketing campaign without even straining your budget. After getting postcard template, you need to focus on the artwork and text of postcard that makes you more creative and wide control on your budget. The free postcard template allows you to make incredibly quick postcards in a very time saving manner.

If you have all the information and images ready to use then designing a postcard can be a matter of minutes. The one bad thing with these postcard templates is the lonely blank white cards with simple headers. You can’t incorporate enticing text boxes, background colors and borders. At the end of the day, your postcard will look like a sloppy and unprofessional.

]]>

Second problem with this type of template is that these free templates have only back side option to write your marketing message. So, if you are looking to create unique worthy and attention grabbing postcards, you need to spend some hours at the designing.

You may want to think twice about using free postcard templates if you are attempting to build reputability or promote a high quality product or service. The last thing you want is for your postcard to look like you spent nothing on it when you want to be taken seriously!

Unless you know what you’re doing, leave it to the hands of someone more skilled. Avoid postcard templates that do not define borders around the edge of the postcard on the back side. Or even worse, the offending part might be cut off without your approval!

These are very basic white postcards, so for a more elaborate look try online for full color postcards, which has seven different sizes of templates that are free to download. 

Thus, these are the tips that you should consider before you think about free postcard templates.

It can ruin your postcard design, so you should be careful about this. You should move on to those templates instead of settling for these market templates.  

Missing printing bleed dimensions

The one more important thing that you need to consider is the missing print bleed dimension. It usually found in color postcard and many designers don’t consider useful those templates that don’t have printing bleed dimension. It is the small extension of design that is reserved for the orienting inconsistencies. Without bleed dimensions, some white and black areas will appear around the edges even though it has colored background. Don’t pick those postcards that are without these dimensions.  

]]>

Dimension settings

It is important that postcard templates should have standard dimensions. Standard dimensions mean that the postcard has legal size. The legal size allows to be accepted by most mailing service. Non-standard dimensions are not accepted by all mailing services. That’s why it can make you little worry. Standard dimensions are always save to use and most acceptable.

Guidelines and grids

The proper guidelines and girds are also most important aspect of postcard templates. Find the postcard template for proper grids and guidelines. Without proper grids and guidelines, you may face little difficulty in formatting your postcard design in a correct manner.

Specialized file format

There are some templates that are saved in specialized format. If you have found the template that is hard to open then just leave it because it is not an ideal postcard template format. You can find tons of other templates that can be open easily.
